I would find this way more readable:

        if (lo & ENABLE_C1E_MASK) {
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_AMD_C1E_WORKAROUND
                if (disable_amd_c1e) {
                        ...
#else
                return 1;
#endif
        }

Why does it require to be enabled by compile-time AND run-time?  Is that
something you might want to decide on every boot?  Could we make it
settable at boot-time xor at compile-time?
